Gather Disc 4 (2021)

Disc 4 contrasts two of the richest genres in chamber music, the piano quintet and the string sextet, and celebrates one of Western classical music’s most hallowed masters: Johannes Brahms, whose Piano Quintet reveals him at the height of his powers. The quintet prefaces another revered work by Brahms, his youthfully vibrant String Sextet in B-flat, his first triumph of chamber music solely for strings. Composed at age twenty-seven, the sextet rings with a grand sonority, affirming what Robert Schumann heard in the young Brahms’s chamber music writing as ″veiled symphonies.″   |   Liner Notes
